Except as otherwise 65 provided in this paragraph, there is no presumption for or 66 against the father or mother of the child or for or against any 67 specific time-sharing schedule when creating or modifying the 68 parenting plan of the child. 69 2.The court shall order that the parental responsibility 70 for a minor child be shared by both parents if determined to be 71 in the best interests of the child based on reasonable factors, 72 including, but not limited to, the time-sharing factors in 73 subsection (3), unless the court finds that shared parental 74 responsibility would be detrimental to the child. There is The 75 following evidence creates a rebuttable presumption that shared 76 parental responsibility is not in the best interests of the 77 child and would be detrimental of detriment to the child if it 78 is proven by clear and convincing evidence that: 79 a.A parent has been convicted of a misdemeanor of the 80 first degree or higher involving domestic violence, as defined 81 in s. 741.28 and chapter 775; 82 b.A parent meets the criteria of s. 39.806(1)(d); or 83 c.A parent has been convicted of or had adjudication 84 withheld for an offense enumerated in s. 943.0435(1)(h)1.a., and 85 at the time of the offense: 86 (I)The parent was 18 years of age or older. 87 (II)The victim was under 18 years of age or the parent 88 believed the victim to be under 18 years of age; 89 d.A parent or child has reasonable cause to believe he or 90 she is in imminent danger of becoming a victim of domestic 91 violence, as defined in s. 741.28, caused by the other parent, 92 upon a review of all relevant factors, including, but not 93 limited to, the factors in s. 741.30(6)(b); or 94 e.There is alleged domestic violence as defined in s. 95 741.28; sexual violence as defined in s. 784.046(1)(c); child 96 abuse as defined in s. 39.01(2); child abandonment as defined in 97 s. 39.01(1); or child neglect as defined in s. 39.01(50) by a 98 parent, regardless of whether a cause of action has been brought 99 or is currently pending in the court. 100 101 A parent may rebut the presumption that shared parental 102 responsibility is not in the best interests of the child upon a 103 specific finding in writing by the court that the parent does 104 not pose a significant risk of harm to the child and that time 105 sharing is in the best interests of the child. If the 106 presumption is rebutted, the court must consider all time 107 sharing factors in subsection (3) when developing the time 108 sharing schedule. 109 3.If the presumption is not rebutted after the offending 110 convicted parent is advised by the court that the presumption 111 exists, shared parental responsibility, including time-sharing 112 with the child, and decisions made regarding the child, may not 113 be granted to the offending convicted parent. However, the 114 offending convicted parent is not relieved of any obligation to 115 provide financial support. 116 4.If the court determines that shared parental 117 responsibility would be detrimental to the child based on 118 factors other than those in subparagraph 2., it may order sole 119 parental responsibility for the child to one parent and make 120 such arrangements for time-sharing as specified in the parenting 121 plan that as will best protect the child or parent, including, 122 but not limited to, supervised visitation by a third party at 123 the expense of the parent without sole parental responsibility 124 or a designated location at which to pick up and drop off the 125 child abused spouse from further harm. Whether or not there is a 126 conviction of any offense of domestic violence or child abuse or 127 the existence of an injunction for protection against domestic 128 violence, the court shall consider evidence of domestic violence 129 or child abuse as evidence of detriment to the child. 130 5.3.In ordering shared parental responsibility, the court 131 may consider the expressed desires of the parents and may grant 132 to one party the ultimate responsibility over specific aspects 133 of the childs welfare or may divide those responsibilities 134 between the parties based on the best interests of the child. 135 Areas of responsibility may include education, health care, and 136 any other responsibilities that the court finds unique to a 137 particular family. 138 6.4.The court shall order sole parental responsibility for 139 a minor child to one parent, with or without time-sharing with 140 the other parent if it is in the best interests of the minor 141 child. 142 7.5.There is a rebuttable presumption against granting 143 time-sharing with a minor child if a parent has been convicted 144 of or had adjudication withheld for an offense enumerated in s. 145 943.0435(1)(h)1.a., and at the time of the offense: 146 a.The parent was 18 years of age or older. 147 b.The victim was under 18 years of age or the parent 148 believed the victim to be under 18 years of age. 149 150 A parent may rebut the presumption upon a specific finding in 151 writing by the court that the parent does not pose a poses no 152 significant risk of harm to the child and that time-sharing is 153 in the best interests of the minor child. If the presumption is 154 rebutted, the court must shall consider all time-sharing factors 155 in subsection (3) when developing a time-sharing schedule. 156 8.6.Access to records and information pertaining to a 157 minor child, including, but not limited to, medical, dental, and 158 school records, may not be denied to either parent. Full rights 159 under this subparagraph apply to either parent unless a court 160 order specifically revokes these rights, including any 161 restrictions on these rights as provided in a domestic violence 162 injunction. A parent having rights under this subparagraph has 163 the same rights upon request as to form, substance, and manner 164 of access as are available to the other parent of a child, 165 including, without limitation, the right to in-person 166 communication with medical, dental, and education providers. 167 (3)For purposes of establishing or modifying parental 168 responsibility and creating, developing, approving, or modifying 169 a parenting plan, including a time-sharing schedule, which 170 governs each parents relationship with his or her minor child 171 and the relationship between each parent with regard to his or 172 her minor child, the best interest of the child must shall be 173 the primary consideration. A determination of parental 174 responsibility, a parenting plan, or a time-sharing schedule may 175 not be modified without a showing of a substantial, material, 176 and unanticipated change in circumstances and a determination 177 that the modification is in the best interests of the child. 178 Determination of the best interests of the child must shall be 179 made by evaluating all of the factors affecting the welfare and 180 interests of the particular minor child and the circumstances of 181 that family, including, but not limited to: 182 (m)Evidence of domestic violence, sexual violence, child 183 abuse, child abandonment, or child neglect, regardless of 184 whether a prior or pending action relating to those issues has 185 been brought. If the court accepts evidence of prior or pending 186 actions regarding domestic violence, sexual violence, child 187 abuse, child abandonment, or child neglect, the court must 188 specifically acknowledge in writing that such evidence was 189 considered when evaluating the best interests of the child. 190 (s)Whether and to what extent the child has developed a 191 relationship with either parent and the nature of any bond that 192 has been established between such parent and the child, 193 including, but not limited to, whether the child has expressed 194 or exhibited behavior that suggests that the child fears for his 195 or her safety or well-being while being in the care of the other 196 parent. Upon the request of one parent, and at that parents 197 expense, the court may order an independent evaluation by a 198 psychiatrist licensed under chapter 458 or chapter 459 or a 199 psychologist licensed under chapter 490. 200 (t)Clear and convincing evidence that a parent has an 201 improper motive for seeking shared parental responsibility and 202 whether such motive will negatively interfere with that parents 203 ability to safely and effectively share parental 204 responsibilities. 205 Section 3.Subsection (4) of section 414.0252, Florida 206 Statutes, is amended to read: 207 414.0252Definitions.As used in ss. 414.025-414.55, the 208 term: 209 (4)Domestic violence means coercive control or any 210 assault, aggravated assault, battery, aggravated battery, sexual 211 assault, sexual battery, stalking, aggravated stalking, 212 kidnapping, false imprisonment, or other any criminal offense 213 that results in the physical injury or death of one family or 214 household member by another. 215 Section 4.Present subsections (1) through (4) of section 216 741.28, Florida Statutes, are redesignated as subsections (2) 217 through (5), respectively, a new subsection (1) is added to that 218 section, and present subsection (2) of that section is amended, 219 to read: 220 741.28Domestic violence; definitions.As used in ss. 221 741.28-741.31: 222 (1)Coercive control means a pattern of threatening, 223 humiliating, or intimidating actions by one family or household 224 member against another family or household member, which actions 225 are used to harm, punish, or frighten the family or household 226 member and make him or her dependent on the other family or 227 household member by isolating, exploiting, or regulating him or 228 her.
